  • reactions Stewart platform direct kinematics

    Hello,

    I would like to thank the people who gave a reaction on my mail about the
    direct kinematics of a Stewards Platform (attached under this mail).
    A short summery of reactions to help people who deals with the same problem:
    - look in SimMechanics of Matlab
    - Prof. Ian Stokes at the University of Vermont has built such a hexapod for
    spinal testing, and has published a few papers about the topic.
    - His collegue Mack Gardner-Morse has worked on matlabfiles of a haxapod.
    - http://www.autolev.com
    - Matthew R. Walker, MSc, Biomechanical Engineer, University of Guelph
    advised me to use the Newton-Raphson iterative scheme to find the pose. He
    developed the system and control methodology for a Stewart Platform for
    spinal testing during his Master Thesis
    - http://www-sop.inria.fr/coprin/equipe/merlet/merlet_eng.html
    - Zoran Lazarevic, who worked with robots has some very useful information
    with matlab-files on the internet http://lazax.com/blog/ or
    http://www1.cs.columbia.edu/~laza/

    Thanks to Yongqiang, Dr. Stephen Ferguson, Ian Stokes, M. Walker, Mack
    Gardner-Morse, Zoran Lazarevic, Kevin Guelton (Université de Valenciennes).

    I am working on a system to measure the angles and distance between 2
    following vertebrals (in vitro), when moving/bending the spine. This will be
    done by using the basics of an hexapod or also a Stewards Platform.
    I am searching for anybody who worked with the Forward dynamics of this
    system; by knowing the length of the 6 struts to calculate to the position
    (x,y,z,alpha,gamma, zeta) we need a transformation matrix and a calcutation
    with respect to the defined x,y,z-axis.
    I hope somebody can help me with this or can provide me some advice.
    thank you,
    Lizette
